The BMW 1 SERIES (2007-13) 116I 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 122 EU5 PERFORMANCE EDITION STEP AUTO6 is a premium hatchback, offering an upmarket alternative to mainstream three-door models. Rear-wheel drive gives it a distinctive feel among compact rivals, while its automatic gearbox makes everyday journeys straightforward. It suits buyers wanting BMW style in a manageable-sized car. Mycarcheck.com has recorded five checks across three distinct VINs, so the sample is limited. Within those records, average private-sale valuation is £3,000, average latest mileage is 96,000 miles, and annual mileage averages 4,000. Cars had an average of 3.2 previous keepers; individual examples can differ. As a three-door, it is best for singles, couples or commuters valuing cabin comfort and an engaging drive over easy rear-seat access; families may prefer a five-door rival. The Performance Edition adds a sportier look, and the 116i suits town and longer trips. Check service history and condition before buying.
